Memorial, Video and Online Obituary Distribution Bundle

BOSTON, MA ­– July 16,
2012 - Tributes.com, the online resource for local and national obituary news, today
announced the launch of an enhanced video generation software solution which is
fully integrated with their industry leading, multi-media Eternal Tribute
online memorial product. The video generation product, called Eternal Tribute
Video Plus, was developed in partnership with Tukios, the video software
specialists known for producing the fastest tribute video software available in
the funeral profession.

Leveraging the extensive research and
development that Tukios has put into their platform, the Eternal Tribute Video
Plus solution is fully featured, offering a complete range of video effects and
transitions, extensive theme and music libraries, photo editing, captioning,
and photo-to-music time synchronization all easily configured from within the
Tributes.com Funeral Home Central command-and-control center.Funeral home-branded videos can be
instantly downloaded and burned to an unlimited number of DVDs at no extra
charge.Funeral homes will enjoy
revenue shares associated with purchases by extended family and friends of DVDs
and Bookshelf Box Keepsakes transacted directly through a self-service
interface offered on the Tukios-powered video player.

Tributes.com funeral home partners that
have standardized on the Eternal Tribute will be able to use the photo assets
uploaded into the popular online memorial platform to immediately create
state-of-the-art videos in minutes.The seamless integration of the Eternal Tribute Video Plus capabilities
eliminates the need to repeat the photo upload process in a secondary software
platform, streamlining operations and reducing costs.By creating this valuable extension to the Eternal
Tribute, Tributes.com has developed the only platform in the industry that
allows the combined creation of a multi-media, online memorial and an elegant
tribute video coupled with the broad online media distribution of the Tributes
Network and Tributes.com at a single, highly competitive wholesale price point.

"We know from surveying our partners
how important the creation of videos has become to enhancing and customizing
the service experience," said Elaine Haney, CEO&President of Tributes.com.
"Recognizing that the creation of a beautiful online multi-media memorial
involves much of the same work as a tribute DVD, it has been our mission to bring
these two things together to save our partners time and money.Co-developing with Tukios allowed us to
quickly bring a product to market with the premium features and functions that
our customers have come to expect from us.”

“The creation of videos has increasingly
become a highly requested service offering in our business, but it can be time
consuming for our staff or alternatively, very expensive if we choose to
outsource,” said Larry Calcaterra, CFO of Wujek-Calcaterra&Sons Funeral
Home.“As long time believers in the value of the Tributes.com
platform and the power of their online obituary distribution network, we
couldn’t be more pleased to see that we will now have integrated video creation
capabilities to help dramatically reduce the costs associated with our digital
operations. We look forward to being able to leverage the Eternal Tribute Video
Plus product to support our ongoing efforts to provide best-in-class offerings to
the families that we serve.”

"Tributes.com has rapidly become the
go-to brand for all things related to the online obituary in the funeral
profession and we couldn’t be more pleased to be helping them enhance their
video creation offerings with the Tukios platform," said Curtis Funk, CEO &
Founder of Tukios. "Much like Tributes, we have carefully architected our
products from the beginning with the funeral home in mind focusing on creating valuable
solutions that are fast and easy-to-use and help funeral homes lower costs while
increasing revenues.”
